Me--I like my hair to be bottom of bsl at the most. And since I had my baby 9 mths ago, I almost never, ever wear it loose anymore so that's even more reason not to let it get too long (for me, might be fine for others).
I tend to let it grow grow grow and then cut 3 or 4 inches off at a time (whatever's dry). I do my own cuts at home out of convenience and enjoyment.
So yes there are at least two of us who are not growing our hair to max length but still love long hair and discussions thereof!
I think it would be nice to be content with a bsl or waist length. Mine's never been longer than waist, then I always cut it.
I'm curious to see what will happen after waist length, but I have quite a long time to wait.
I'm hoping for fingertip/mid-thigh length, but I'll be happy with what I can get and have it look healthy. I'm probably still going for terminal length. I'm getting older (sort of) and I want to do this now at this point in my life. Also, I can't see myself going back to a short haircut ever.
I'm rambling...
I have to say I have never taken such good care of my hair as I have since finding these boards!

Since I've had a say in it, I've never had mine shorter than shoulders
or longer than waist. When it was first growing from short when I was
little, I had an Afro for a little while. Adorable on a preschooler in
the '80's, but these days, it ain't happening. Even if I had straight
hair, though, I don't think that short hair would be my style. Right
now it's a bit past BSL, and that's pretty much where I like it best.
Long enough that it's flowing and I feel like I stand out, but I can
still try things like bangs and they grow out relatively painlessly.
Monica: Isn't there any way that you could look at this as flattering? I mean, she's doing this to be more like you. Rachel: Well, then, couldn't she have just copied my haircut?

Don't get me wrong- I really like medium length long hair. But, to me it's another nice style, far better than most certainly! However, it's only when hair descends to a few inches below BS that it starts meriting a second glance from me. And waist length or longer renders me agape, so long as it's in good condition. (lol)
So to me, there is a HUGE difference in beauty between moderately long and very long. One caveat is that if a woman truly can't deal with super long hair, I appreciate it when she keeps it as long as possible. Bob
My hair is just past my shoulder blades, and I have a goal for mid-back, I would be very Happy with hair that long, I dont need it waist length BUT........if it were to grow that long I sure wouldnt cut it. Time will tell. What is a good shampoo and is there place to look on the boards???
Mysty, I would check the Hairboutique Shop - especially the Phyto shampoos. They make at least six different shampoos for all different ranges of hair.
Make every day you have count, before the time comes for you to count every day you have.

My hair loves the Phytojoba and best thing of all, there's free shipping on Phyto purchased in the Hairboutique marketplace
